Blah. So super short update! Sorry for anyone I haven't messaged back yet! I willllllllll!!!!! <3
The kitty is back! Everyone seems to love her at work and in the building. So everyone seems to be chipping in on food, and love, and even a bath. So things look up for "Ton Ton Butchie". "Ton Ton" fron me. "Butchie" from my...

Today I almost got another cat. Not that I need or want another cat. Nor can I really afford to fly two cats back to Canada.... But a stray cat came into work today! She was soooo cute and loving and thin! She kept jumping up on my lap and giving me kisses and cuddling!
But man she smelled sooo bad! Like she had rolled...

Wow. Those pictures are great.

Don't fight with your concious too much...as much as we'd all love to save all the skinny kitties of the world, it just isn't practical. Keeping the one you have safe and healthy is the best thing you can do.

Guh. I am still so sick! Haha, I actually have gotten a lot worse after the weekend. Probably because I was up late Saturday and Sunday night! And I sang an hour and half of karaoke with one friend on Saturday night and I sang four hours of karaoke with two friends on Sunday. My throat was killing me! I keep getting weird sudden and...

Very nice tats! Oh, and I definitely think you should go for the chest pieces. Chest pieces kick ass.
So yeah, caterpillars. Technically, it was a masters of biology, but my research subject was caterpillars. Before that I'd done a BA in biology/ecology. So now, I'm looking for work either in a university lab as a research assistant or with an environmental consulting firm. Or really, there's like a billion different things I *can* do with it, but nothing specific. It's kind of nice and crappy at the same time smile

Yeah getting a fever suxs but at least you look comfortable in your pj's. wow thats awesome that you live in Japan I've always wanted to go and visit. smile
insomnaniac:
It's really too bad you wont be around to enjoy the city this summer. I was only here a couple weeks last summer, but it was really good. Always lots to do. So, does that also mean you wont be attending school here? Or was that just for the summer? What are you going to school for? Something related to teaching, something completely different?
And yeah, growlers rock. When you're next in town, you should definitely get your hands on some.

So. I dyed a blonde streak in my hair! Or, to be more correct my good friend did it for me! I love it. It makes me very happy! LoL. As silly as that might be. So. I sent my boyfriend a picture, expecting a nice comment. Instead I got the following.... "You dyed your hair didn't you? I knew there was something that made...

First of all, you're gorgeous! Secondly, the blonde streak looks fantastic. His comments says a lot more about him than it does you. Sorry, but he sounds like a jerk (or at least he was in a jerky mood!)

I would LOVE it if you could pick me up somthing Barbapapa. Something inexpensive... like a platic figurine of the family (I think that's as close as I'm going to get to the finger puppets!) How can I send you payment? Do you have paypal??? Let me know! You're such a doll for doing this for me!

Much love xox
flayhugh:
your hair looks cute. ;-) I'm kinda used to hearing snide comments all the time...small blessings of having a father that's a miserable bastard. heh.

And congrats on finding the shoes. ;-)

ARRR!!!

Haha. Because I am far to drunk to write a proper post I present a completely stolen quiz from Benten Suicide. Yay.

A slight insight into the contents of my music collection...

1. Put your iTunes, Windows Media Player, iPod, etc. on shuffle.
2. For each question, press the next button to get your answer.
3. You must write that song name down no matter...

Interesting smile
flayhugh:
lol. interesting music collection. I wound up doing one of those a long while back...but I did it twice. Once with the random list going, and then once with my personal picks for the songs that best match each question.

But yeah, I'm quite happy to have my little idiot back. He still wants to get out like mad, but at least he's now got some experience, and I won't worry about him getting lost. lol I will take pictures of the copper pony once I'm done with it.

and the Demonic plumbing project...we had to install a bathroom drainage system (tub, toilet, sink) on one floor...then at the top of the work station we had to install a second bathroom group. Venting system and all for the drains. My partner, Ray, wound up tying his vents and drains together in a weird configuration. I'll wind up getting bored later on and draw it on ms paint, post the picture of it on my blog. (with what it should have looked like vs. what if I remember correctly, he did.)

And I do believe I am getting even more long-winded as I get older. lol ARRR!!!

Woo! My student who always takes me out on Friday mornings and teahes me Japanese things is just... AWESOME! She does caligraphy and she wrote my favorite kanji (Michi - although I also like Kokoro...) on a fancy little board and gave it to me as a gift! EI! I LOVE it!! It is one my most prized posessions! Hahah! Seriously! No one ever takes...

hehe awesome! Yeah the guild makes all the difference.

That is an awesome gift. What does it translate to? (I'm completely useless as far as other languages go I'm afraid. Although for my one friend I promised to make a pony out of copper pipe for her (she looooooves horses). lol... ARRR!!!

and woot for your evil juniors getting a new teacher to torture! lol
flayhugh:
indeed indeed. ;-) But as I recall..being a complete ass and thinking yourself the center of the universe doesn't just end in Junior High. lol

But I would agree, everyone has a way about them, and a path they have to walk...and as far as my copper pony...sadly she doesn't have enough room for me to build her a life-size pony. that would just be too awesome (and costly) Instead she gets a figurine made by me. lol. my only problem is going to be I'll say is bending the pipe a bit. I'll prolly have to do it by hand, because buying a bender is going to cost some money that I don't really have. lol.

But yeah I'm terribly glad that I passed that inspection. My teacher had less negative things to say about it than other people's projects. (called one satanic/demonic, and another 2 were called out on using a pipe size that was too small) mine was just weird looking and would function perfectly well otherwise. lol ARRR!!!

I am having such a long break between classes right now. It is crazy! One class switched to Tuesdays and another one cancelled and I normally have a long break anyway... So wow. Haha. Lots of spare time today!
Lee came over the night before last! We hit up Kappa Kitin and then Big Echo for three hours of Karaoke. It was grande. Haha. We...

Dancing is the best!

We've been together a year in Febuary but we were best friends for a year before that. Technically, if you ask our friends they'd say we've been dating 2 years. He's the greatest, but boys as always will be pains. Wow. So, you've got swimming and we've got super cold. It's mindblowing. I would much rather be swimming.

Was gonna but the landlord's husband hates cats. Oh well. Anyway, I know there are a few members in Nagoya so you should be in capable hands.

So what happened that made you lose it in front of your (I'm sure) well-mannered and obedient pupils? wink

Woo. It is flippin chilly today! Soon as I got off of work I went from sneakers to slippers, left my sweater and jacket on, put the heat as high as possible and have been hibernating under the kotatsu! Haha, But I am not getting any warmer. I think that I may have gotten a chill. Damnit. Where is your personal man heater when you...

Wooo. Back to work finally. I think that the thought of being back to work was much worse than actually being back to work! My first day back was great, even my devil children class behaved! And today I told one of my students that I was going back home in four months and I thought she was going to cry!! So it was really...

Hi! Thanks for "friending" me. Japan is the #1 place I want to go, but of course money prevents that from happening. I can understand missing those little moments with people when you can't communicate due to language barriers. Must be kinda lonely.

I am so tempted to just get the damn nose ring, but I value my job and the opinion people have of me here too much to tarnish it. It's just one of those things I'll have to wait to do when I'm not working here anymore. Bummer.

what part of japan do you live? i taught english in mito for a while.
